'Whenever I was with you I would flourish with happiness.
No drug would ever make me feel as alive as you could.
I swear all the anger in the world could disintegrate with the way I look at you.'

But you weren't a fool, you knew I was hopelessly In love with you. I couldn't hide it, it was written all over my face. But you only fell In love with my body not my soul. I only let you because I knew having a tiny part of you was better than not having you at all.

You would give me all the love and warmth I desired then pull me back out just because you could. When you realized you had gone too far, you'd look at me with a blank stare and a cold heart and spit out the words 'I don't love you'. Every single time you said it the pain would devour my body right in front of you. I knew that you didn't care, but I couldn't stop loving you. Even after my heart became dust from you tearing it apart.
